Framed photographs flank the cutout, one showing a figure in orange robes before a banyan tree, and another showing a long-haired figure in orange. A framed painting of a figure seated on an ornate throne hangs above. The altar table has a leopard-print cloth, flower garlands in red, yellow and white, a small brass lamp, a kalasha-like brass vessel, small figurines and a trident-marked poster.
